It comes after a wave of strikes caused severe disruption across the NHS.
Consultants will meet with the Government “in a hope to find a resolution” to the row leading to strikes in England, officials have said.
The Department of Health and Social Care said Health Secretary Steve Barclay has responded to the British Medical Association consultants’ committee and agreed to a meeting.“We have agreed to meet the BMA consultants’ committee following their commitment to pause strike action, in the hope we will find a resolution and end the dispute,” they said.
“This means doctors who started their hospital training this year have received a 10.3% pay increase, with the average junior doctor getting 8.8% and consultants 6%, alongside generous reforms to their pensions – the BMA’s number one ask.”More than a million appointments, operations and procedures have been rescheduled as a result of the current wave of industrial action, including walkouts by nurses, paramedics and other health staff.
